Hi,
I have an IP camera (foscam). It's connected to my wireless router. My router is connected to my motorola cable modem. My isp is Cox.
I want to be able to view this camera from outside (ie: when I'm at work) by going to http://(my real ip) : (port). Port that I use is 88. I can't seem to do this.
First I set the port 88 to the camera's config. I can see the camera when I'm at home (going to 192.168.1.106:88). Reading the manual, I need to forward the port 88. So I go to my linksys wireless router 192.168.1.1 and single-port forward 88 UDP TCP (both) to 192.168.1.106.
This doesn't solve the problem.
I go to Open Port Check Tool and put in port 88 and it says I could not see your service on (my real ip) on port (88)
Reason: Connection refused
I then enabled the dmz to 192.168.1.106 -- this doesn't solve the problem either. Same error as above.
So I disabled dmz.
I called Cox and they said this port is not blocked.
The manual mentioned something about antivirus or firewall but I don't know if this will solve it. It also mentioned about using another port which I did but still same problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
